    The why did the “skeptic” have to be so dickish to the old guy? Evidently politeness and respecting one’s elders went out a few decades ago. The guy wasn’t even a skeptic. He was a non-believer period. And to tell someone that’s been in the woods as a hunter/tracker their whole life that they could’ve mistaken a bear for a bigfoot is ludicrous. I don’t think I could mistake a bear for a bigfoot and I’ve only ever seen 2 bear out in the wild, and one of those was a cub. Call me a skeptic, hell I’ve never seen a squatch, but I can look at circumstantial evidence and come to a somewhat reasonable conclusion that something strange is out there.

    Wow!! What balls that skeptic had to tell the old gentleman that he didn’t know what a bear looked like. I garauntee that skeptic has never spent one day in the woods. Someone take him to honobia and drop him in the woods.

    I met Wes Sumerlin years later when I worked as the Coordinator for the Conservation District in Walla Walla county…

    He invited me to meet at the food court at the Blue Mountain mall to chat with the locals who looked for bigfoot in that area.

    He ambushed me by not telling me that Vance Orchard would be there (reporter for The Waitsburg Times and author of Bigfoot in the Blues).

    I had over heard them discussing bigfoot while my 87 T-bird was being repaired at a local gas station. They hushed up when I went inside to get a cold can of soda, until I casually said, “Oh, you guys have seen the big hairy fellow too. ”

    They scrambled to follow me outside as I walked to the garage to watch my T-bird up on the rack being worked on… They surrounded me like a bunch of excited school children, chattering away and asking if I had seen one locally.

    I found out a television crew was coming to interview them regarding their sightings up in the Mill Creek watershed near Tiger Canyon just over the Oregon state line in the Blue Mountains.

    I told them that I had my sighting a few miles from the west gate entrance into Mt. Rainier National Park.

    When I met them again at the mall and discussed our stories over some of the best seasoned cheesy fries I have ever had, they introduced me to Vance Orchard, the reporter who asked if he could write about me for his newspaper.

    I politely declined, stressing the fact that I had just been hired to run the Conservation District and had two young daughters to support… I told them that I was pretty sure that I’d lose my job if I went public.

    Little did I know that it would actually happen years later while working for another nonprofit group and that I’d remain unemployed for five years after publicly stating that I’d seen Bigfoot at an Annual fundraising event.
